Pittsburgh Palin Fundraiser Becomes Big Obama Rally

About 400 people helped keep the number of protesters constantly above 200 for several hours....The numbers included at least two official (and I believe permit-holding) groups, plus a groundswell of...just...people.

It was the perfect protest. We did not try to silence Palin in any way. No roads or sidewalks were blocked. We just testified, with a wide range of signs, that she does not speak for hockey moms, for soccer moms, for working moms, for working people, for middle class people, for fair-minded rich people, for people who care about the environment or animals, for people who care about affordable healthcare, and for people who care about the health and the future of Pittsburgh and Pittsburghers. And, in the case of DFP, that putting lipstick on George Bush and Dick Cheney does not make 4 more years of the same witless policies more attractive...that pit-bull-headedness is more of the same current bull-headedness.

2. For a moment there I thought they had another child: Pittsburgh Palin

Which wouldn't be surprising in the least.
